Is there a place too dark for Jesus to enter—or a person too lost for Him to love? Trey Sansom and Pastor Daniel Bueckman explore the depth of Christ’s love, a love that pursues sinners and goes all the way to the cross. Through stories of fatherhood, Jesus’ teaching about loving our neighbors, and the hope of His resurrection, they reflect on mercy that reaches beyond our boundaries and expectations. Daniel also shares how a new campus ministry at the University of Houston is creating opportunities for students to hear this good news and grow in faith.

What if God is using the gospel seeds you plant even when you cannot see anything happening? Host Pastor Trey Sansom and Pastor Matt Peeples revisit an experimental worship gathering called Bar Church after discovering that one night may have helped begin an atheist’s journey toward faith. The story reminds them that God is often working beneath the surface in ways we cannot measure, manage, or immediately recognize. Together, Trey and Matt discuss scattering gospel seeds widely, listening to the missional ideas God gives everyday Christians, and taking the good news of Jesus beyond traditional church settings. They also explain why no single Christian is responsible for someone’s entire faith journey—the Holy Spirit brings different people into the story at the right times. Keep planting. Keep sharing. God may be growing something you cannot yet see.

Pastor Trey Sansom and Pastor Chuck Ridley have an honest conversation about how church wounds happen, why hurt people sometimes hurt others, and how unforgiveness can keep us imprisoned long after the original offense. They discuss the importance of speaking directly to the person who caused the hurt, extending grace without pretending the wrong did not matter, and trusting Jesus with justice and healing. Chuck also offers one practical response: call someone you have not seen recently and remind them that they have not been forgotten. Discover how the grace of Jesus can meet us in our wounds and help us forgive.

In this episode of Engaging Truth, host Pastor Trey Sansom sits down again with Pastor Matt Peeples of Faith Oakville in St. Louis and The Kairos Network to talk about having spiritual conversations from a place of curiosity. Together, they explore how listening well, asking honest questions, and paying attention to where someone is spiritually can open the door for Gospel conversations without turning people into projects.

From “Positive Christian Bumps” to recognizing green, yellow, and red lights in conversation, this episode equips everyday Christians to share Jesus with wisdom, patience, and genuine love.

In this episode of Engaging Truth, host Pastor Trey Sansom turns the tables on frequent host Pastor John Cain and puts him in the guest chair for a conversation about one of the most foundational truths of the Christian faith: Jesus is God.

Together they explore why the divinity of Jesus matters for salvation, redemption, forgiveness, and Christian hope. If Jesus were merely a great teacher or extraordinary human being, He could not rescue us from sin, death, and the devil. But because Jesus is fully God and fully human, His death and resurrection accomplish what we could never accomplish for ourselves. This conversation points listeners to the certainty of Christ’s promises and the eternal hope we have in Him.

In this follow-up episode of Engaging Truth, host Pastor Trey Sansom reconnects with Pastor Tony Kobak of Lamb of God Lutheran Church in Humble, Texas, to revisit one simple practice: asking people, “How can I pray for you?”

After Tony challenged Trey to try it, Trey began putting it into practice with restaurant servers and discovered how often a simple question opens the door to meaningful conversations about faith, struggle, hope, and Jesus. Together they share stories of servers, cashiers, strangers, and unexpected encounters that became moments of prayer and connection. This episode offers a practical challenge to everyday disciples: notice the person in front of you, ask the question, and trust Jesus with what happens next.

In this episode of Engaging Truth, host Pastor Trey Sansom talks with his longtime friend Pastor Seth Kunze of The Dwelling in Porter, Texas, about the power of gathering families around God’s Word. Seth shares how simple family devotions shaped him as a child and how he and his wife carry that same rhythm into their home with six children. From reading Scripture and praying together to singing, blessing their children, and adapting family worship to busy schedules, Trey and Seth offer practical encouragement for parents who want Jesus’ voice to shape their homes. The goal is not a perfect devotion—it is simply opening God’s Word, showing up consistently, and trusting Jesus to do what only Jesus can do.

What happens in worship is meant to shape the rest of our lives. In this episode of Engaging Truth, host Pastor Trey Sansom talks with Pastor Seth Davidson about how the Church gathers to receive God’s Word, forgiveness, grace, and the gifts of Jesus—and then carries those gifts into homes, workplaces, neighborhoods, and relationships.

They discuss confession and absolution, the power of speaking the words “I forgive you,” and why Sunday worship should become rehearsal for everyday discipleship. This conversation encourages listeners to see themselves as the Church wherever they go and to bring the grace they have received from Jesus into the lives of others.
